The ASP.NET machine account was created when the .NET Framework was
installed. It *can* be deleted safely, but I would just recommend
disabling it, if you don't want to keep it active. You'll need to re-enable
the account if you want to do any ASP.NET development on that machine.
The Administrator account is just that - it's the God account on the
machine. Your Owner account more than likely is a member of the
Administrators group, and therefore has the same rights that the
Administrator account itself does.
I would not - however - recommend removing the Owner account and just using
Administrator. Administrator should *never* be used as a primary account.
It should really only be used in emergencies when other admin accounts are
not available.
